Today we interview Elle Pantazis, a Tiktok personality in the adult industry. Lets hear what Elle has to say about her journey and posting content on TikTok.
What inspired you to post about the industry on TikTok?
I started posting random videos on TikTok while I was bored in lockdown. It wasn’t until I was back working in the store when I started posting funny videos. I never expected to become an Adult Industry TikTok Personality. But people seemed to connect and engage with my experiences over the years.
I still remember my first viral video. It was about me asking a customer if he needed a hand and he replied saying “You shouldn’t ask me that in a store like this.” I’m pretty sure that video ended up with 2-3 million views. That’s when I knew I had found my niche on TikTok and that it would now be my goal to normalize the industry in any way that I could. Whether my content was comedic or educational it would still have a positive impact on the industry.
Never in a million years did I expect that I’d end up with such an insanely large, open minded community that I have today on the platform.
I have created a post for like minded people that want to know how to make viral tiktok videos.
What do you love most about working the industry?
What I love the most about working in the industry is being able to help people every day enhance their sex lives. I love that people feel comfortable enough with me to open up about anything and everything and know/feel that they won’t be judged.
As someone who grew up in a strict Greek Orthodox household who never spoke about anything to do with sex, I feel it’s super important for people to know that there is somewhere that they can go to access information about anything sex related.
@ellianapantazis I’m sure she’s just gone to get some milk? #spicytok #iwannagohome
What do you hate most about working the industry?
What I hate most about working in the industry.. there’s nothing really to hate about working in the industry.
Yes, the odd customers that come in every now and then to do their best to make me feel uncomfortable is frustrating. But this is why I think it’s so important to try normalize the industry. If adult stores were a normal thing to talk about and to walk into then the creepers would know that they can’t get away with that behavior anymore.
Adult stores should be a safe space for everyone. It’s where people feel vulnerable. So we should be doing our best to make them as comfortable as possible, whether you’re another customer walking around or a staff member.
Any Advice to those out there that wish to get a TikTok following?
CONISITENCY! My following definitely didn’t grow overnight, I’ve been consistent with posting content for 3 years.
Find your niche- When I first started on TikTok I created random videos with trending sounds and some would get a couple thousand views and others wouldn’t move at all. I then started posting videos in the adult store. One went viral and then I knew that was what I was going to mainly post about on the platform as I knew I had an audience for it.
Some people get lucky enough to blow up overnight. But if that doesn’t happen for you please don’t let that discourage you! You’ll figure out what works for you and what doesn’t 🙂❤️
Do you review any brand of sex toys?
Of course! I don’t discriminate against brands! BUT my reviews are my 100% honest opinion. So if there’s something that I don’t like about your product I’m not going to lie to my viewers about that.

Where do you get the inspiration for the humour in your content?
Honestly.. I’ve always just laughed my way through uncomfortable situations as a coping mechanism and that obviously shows a lot through my content. When I first downloaded the APP I would sit there for hours watching peoples videos, listening to the sounds..
Then a memory from work would pop into my head if it related to the sound and it would make me laugh at the situation.. that’s how it all began LOL! The comedic side of it just ended up working for me when it came to my videos getting views.
I figured if that’s the way I can keep people engaged and start a conversation about the industry. Then that’s how I’ll keep going with it because it would still have a positive impact.
What do you love about being active in the LGBTQIA+ Community and tying that in with TikTok?
Having a platform where I can express myself and be open about my sexuality and gender identity is truly amazing! I didn’t realise till I started going out to community events, how much of an impact my content was actually having on a lot of people.
I’ve learnt that on social media people look up to influencers who aren’t scared to show their true selves. So if my content helps people gain confidence and makes them feel like they can be whoever they want to be, then I’m doing exactly what I aimed to do through the platform.
What can your followers do to support you being a TikTok Personality?
All of my content is free. But purchasing through Adultsmart and using the code TIKTOK in the coupon section at checkout supports me!
Using the code is super important as that is the way the company can trace that the sale happened because you found me on TikTok or on one of my other socials. Liking and commenting on my videos also keeps my account moving and with growth comes more opportunities ❤️
What are some of your favourite vibrator brands and why?
This isn’t a full list otherwise I could literally be here all day!
- We-Vibe and Lovense are my favourite APP controlled sex toys. Both of these brands have well designed APPs that are easy to navigate and great quality toys to go with it. I personally own multiple toys from both companies and what I love most about them is that they’re really versatile. I’ve used some of the Lovense and We-Vibe products out in public on date nights and I’ve also used them in the bedroom in multiple different ways e.g. with a strap-on.
- The Rabbit Company. One of the best brands for rabbit vibrators, they have a massive range with different styles of motors to suit individual needs.
- Doxy & Le Wand. 2 of the top leading wand brands in my opinion with plug in and rechargeable options. They also have a large variety of attachments to choose from so you never get bored of your wand!
- Womanizer. The original air tech! I’ve reviewed a few different brands that have tried to compete with Womanizer and in my opinion they just don’t compare. The premium Womanizers are completely covered in silicone, they’re quiet and they can last a long time in play without dying half way through!
- Fun Factory & Lelo. 2 fantastic companies that’ve been in the game for years! Both have a huge ranges of toys designed for singles and couples. You couldn’t possibly ever get bored because they’re always releasing new, exciting products!
